US journalist James Foley was forced to deliver a brutal message to his family just moments before

US journalist James Foley was forced to deliver a brutal message to his family just moments before he was beheaded by ISIS militants.
Foley, who was kidnapped while reporting on the conflict in Syria in 2012, was beheaded by extremists who warned there would be more executions unless the US and President Obama bowed to their demands.
Unconfirmed video and pictures of the photojournalist’s heartbreaking final moments emerged this morning via Twitter accounts claiming to be associated with the Islamic State, previously known as the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS).
Although there was no immediate official confirmation the pictures were of Mr Foley, his mother Diane Foley released a message on Facebook thanking ‘Jim’ for the joy he gave them and saying he was ‘an extraordinary son, brother, journalist and person.
“We have never been prouder of our son Jim. “
Mr Foley, 40, was abducted while covering the campaign against President Bashar al-Assad. He worked for a variety of media organisations including the AFP news agency.
The gruesome video, titled “A Message to America”, was originally uploaded on Tuesday but has since been deleted.
Prime Minister Tony Abbott said today he was sickened by the news of the beheading.
Although he had not seen the video he was appalled by the reports.

“It’s absolutely sickening, absolutely despicable,” he told Brisbane’s 4BC radio. “It’s a sign that there can be no compromise whatsoever with the murderous terrorists of the ISIL movment. This is as near to pure evil as we are ever likely to see.”
